Leah's Ready for Summer Almost Cropped Top

It hasn't been even remotely warm enough to make me think about buying summer clothes until this week. And so for a little pre-birthday present to myself, I scooped up this number from always reliable Madewell.

It hasn't been even remotely warm enough to make me think about buying summer clothes until this week. And so for a little pre-birthday present to myself, I scooped up this number from always reliable Madewell. Cropped tops are "in" but I'm not into showing off too much skin. This one doesn't--especially if you wear it with high-waisted jeans like I do. I love the print but the best part is the back--it has this scallopped peek-a-boo thing going on. Party in the back guys.

When I went into Madewell a few weeks ago to snag my birthday top, I picked up this matching set, a collab with Honeydew Intimates, along with it. It was an impulse buy--which is something I rarely do. But I'm really glad I did.

If I could dream up my perfect everyday summer sandal, this is what it would look like: Simple, elegant but sturdy, easy to slip on and off, goes with everything. Bonus that these tomboy-ish beauties are made responsibly and in America by Everlane.

Even if my legs haven't seen the sun in what feels like years, it's actually warm out now which means it's time to start wearing seasonally appropriate clothes. Like spring-y dresses.
I picked up this one at A.P.C. after some internal debate ("Does it make me look too much like a nurse? Or does it make me look like a chic French nurse and is that a good thing?") and I'm glad I did.
